Wheel of Time MUD - WoTMUD - MUD Description

Heya, and thanks for checking us out

WoTMUD IV, the Wheel of Time MUD, is an old classic racewar style MUD that was enjoyed by the first generation of net users in the early 90s and continues to attract interest from the discerning, experienced Mudder. There are many reasons to mud here! In the MUD, we shoot for an absorbing MUDding experience which recognises the reality of modern life with its time constraints, so allows folk to come and play casually whenever they want and have some time to log on. What you do is up to you, nothing is mandatory, and our rules are minimised as far as is reasonably possible. We only have 5 rules. And yes, there's always something going on =).

We do our utmost to steer the MUD on a 'middle' course in order to provide gaming fun for as wide a variety of folk as possible, from your tinyplot roleplayers to world explorers from socialisers to pkillers, and from Wotmaniacs to veteran mudders. Maintaining a balance between all the various type of players is very important to us and we like to think that we've succeeded in catering to all types, with no cost to another. In terms of MUD specs, your best source of information for this is the MUD website. Go there to see MUD Reviews, Features, Highlights and the Forums. It's been going 15 years so there's simply too much in the game to properly do it justice here.

Over the years we've had lots of plaudits. A past Mud Connector "Mud of the Month" and Mud Magic "Mud of the Month", it is, in the words of online critics: "The Internet at its Best" (freelaunch.com), "A Killer World" (about.com) and the "The Bee's Knees" (games.com). The Wheel of Time community on the web also gives us a thumbs up: "A Must See" (wheeloftime.org). 'If you are interested in Role Playing and the Wheel of Time, then The Wheel of Time mud is definitely a place you should check out.' (dragonmount.com), and 'one of the best mud's around' (wotmania.com). Netsurfer said that Despite testing it at peak times, we found minimal lag and the denizens friendly and eager to help, a characteristic of all well run MUDs, we've been Yahoo's Site of the Day, the Games.net site of the day, featured in the Rough Guide to the Internet and so on.

We're typically described by our players as "best MUD" "greatest MUD" - but that's obviously an opinion from someone already playing, so better to invite you to come and find out for yourself by visiting the website or even logging on. Best of all though, if you're paying for credits for in-game perks, or paying for a pay-to-play MUD, at wotmud there's no need to pay for anything because we don't charge for anything, we do it because we love it and we love having a good time =)
